Inca Trail to Machu Picchu + Rainbow Mountain 8 days
An extremely well organised tour. Our guide Monica was an amazing guide. Monica went out of her way to make the trip safe, enjoyable and comfortable. Our chef Vidal made an amazing variety and quality of meals each day. Our chief porter Juan did a great job organising the porters. Katy in the office was good to deal with in the lead up to the hike. I highly recommend the 4 day Inka trail hike. We had 14 porters carrying 20kg each for the 6 paid customers and the attention to detail was awesome. The Inka ruins we saw along the way and MachuPicchu was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Inca Trail vs Salkantay Trek
When choosing a trek to Machu Picchu, there are two main options: the Salkantay Trek and the Inca Trail. But which one is right for you? Here's a quick breakdown of each option to help you decide: The Salkantay Trek is a longer, more challenging option th
The hike is very challenging but our guides made sure that we all complete the hike. There were a couple of us who struggled on day 2 but the guides were very encouraging and supportive that all of us completed the hike. Thank you guides Edy, Rosmel and Evangelino… you are very professional, knowledgeable and kind. You made sure that it was not just a hike a but a whole Peruvian experience from sharing to us your culture and your knowledge of the Inca history to indulging us with Peruvian meal. Celso was the head cook… with limited kitchen facilities, he managed to whip amazing food… from soup, to exciting vegetarian dishes (I’m vegetarian) to cakes! Just amazing. Lastly, I’m very impressed with Trexperience as a company… -for being inclusive - we had 2 lady porters (the only female porters I saw on the trail) -focus on safety - Their guides were highly trained on safety. -creating a wholesome experience - it was not just trekking, it was experiencing culture, tradition, people, history. Thank you!
